is the fear of change a phobia?
Today I met someone who, as they put it, were stuck in a life they didn't want and didn't know how to change.
On the face of it you could classify this as coaching, maybe work with clean language (NLP), outcomes, goals etc etc....
When listening to them, it became apparent that it was not so much they didn't know how to change but they were in fact scared of changed..... They even knew what changes they wanted but were afraid of the outcome.. That fear drove them away from change; a sort of phobic reaction to change.
So what would you do?
